TASTE TO REMEMBER
Children’s Hunger Alliance brought back its well-loved Taste to Remember fundraiser, which benefits Central Ohio children experiencing food insecurity, on August 24, 2023, for the first time since May 2019. Held at The Exchange at Bridge Park, the fundraiser featured great food from local chefs and restaurants, live and silent auctions, a bar cart raffle, and a wine and bourbon pull. Attendees raised over $128,000 to help CHA provide meals to more Central Ohio children and heard remarks from CHA President & CEO Judy Mobley, along with Carrie Maun-Smith, AVP – Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Community Relations at Grange Insurance, the presenting sponsor. Dr. Jessie Flowers, a former pediatric resident at Nationwide Children’s Hospital, also spoke about reaching out to CHA a few years ago to create a partnership to provide meals to children at Nationwide’s Primary Care Clinic.
